Technologies
Our licencing technology portfolio consists of three established business platforms, Chemicals, Polyester and Critical Minerals. Each provide unrivalled value to our customers by helping to reduce capital investment, lower operational costs, and boost productivity in a variety of applications for customers worldwide.
Our technology
We add value to polyester production, licensing a full range of technologies from PTA to PET. We provide two-thirds of all licensed PTA capacity worldwide and our innovative approach has led to the production of market leading PET resin.
We licence market leading technologies for the manufacture of BDO, THF and PTMEG, offering world-scale and robust technology. This approach delivers low risk and a high return on investment.
Through integrated engineering and equipment design we can produce a concentrated lithium chloride ready for final conversion into a lithium carbonate or hydroxide. An advantaged technology, the Li-Pro™ license can be tailored to meet your project needs.

Your technology partner
With our decades of experience in licensing technologies, we work with companies to develop their technology.
If you are looking to target growing markets with new technology or have a desire to accelerate the commercialization of your offer through licensing, we have a breadth of capabilities that can support you.
